2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)So who would YOU like to see as Hillary Clinton's running mate? [View all]

My choice is Elizabeth Warren
IMO, choosing her would unite the Democratic Party. and Warren would "destroy" whoever Trump picks as his running mate (in the Vice-Presidential debates)
If none of the posted choices appeals to you, please post a reply naming your choice.

The logic of that is inescapable, but the VP -is- the president of the senate

The national celebrity is a draw, but I think that should be resisted this year.

If not one of the Castro bros, then Becerra could be a successor politically

Count me in for Al Franken! He would be like Biden 2.0, but with more finesse!
